2.57

I have long immersed myself in profound texts, focusing my thoughts on the Avataṃsaka; this single contemplation I have long and thoroughly investigated. If one does not mirror it within one’s heart, one vainly fails one's spiritual nature; hence it is named The Mysterious Mirror of the Dharmadhātu. At that time, I was already of the age of following my heart's desires. The original text concluded, saying: The Huayan Dharma Is Also Mysterious, in one fascicle (some versions lack the character xuan; we now follow the versions that have it). Now, interspersing the original text within, it is separately titled The Mysterious Mirror of the Avataṃsaka Dharmadhātu.
